The photo of the dash shows a non genuine attempt at a windscreen washer.
The paint has been redone but is the original colour.

Hi Alan,
Could you please tell me what colour vinyl your seats are? Wondering if my blue ones are original.
Also, if possible, would you mind taking a photo of the air filter? I'm interested to see where that black hose inserts - the one that I can see running back from the flame stopper? I've tried to mark it in the attached photo.
Regards,
Gus

Hello Gus,
Apologies for the delay.
The black hose is an agricultural patch to lessen the crud on the engine. It is a bit of low density poly pipe which is connected to the body of the oil bath air cleaner. Works a treat but is definitely not ex factory.
The seats have been recovered - but my recollection is that the originals were brown as well. Similar colour to the leather tabs that held them in place on the back.

Hello from Brisbane.

The seats in my 1968 88" and in my late Dad's 1972 109" trucks were both tan.

Ditto my 1975 88" truck.

Cheers,

Neil
